With workplace use skyrocketing, these devices – whether corporate-sanctioned or personally-owned – present security, compliance, and legal challenges that cannot be ignored. Is your organization prepared?

With the Facebook IPO filing I'm starting to get excited about stocks again and my whole outlook on the market is getting brighter. This morning I bought a bunch of Zynga ZNGA shares, Linkedin LNKD shares, and even picked up more Amazon AMZN. I'm even looking at adding the SOCL ETF to my long term portfolio. I've never really talked about stocks on this blog, so why start now? Because that's the mood I'm in right now. Not only am I excited about what's happening in the market, but I'm even...

I've been dreaming about visiting Antarctica for a number of years. At first it was thoughts of completing a visit to each of the 7 continents, then it was wow I've spoken on all of the peopled continents. How can I speak at a conference in Antarctica? Well, as one of the founders of the concept of Sharing the Point the mission of the non profit organization is to reach the ends of the earth, and find those communities and individuals who feel alone and disconnected with the community...

What an amazing Community! Uruguay comes across as such a laid back family centric country. Everywhere we went we saw families enjoying each other and enjoying the weather and ultimately stopping to smell the roses.
This was not only the largest SharePoint event in Uruguay, it appears to be the first! A new SharePoint/SQL Technical Solutions (TSP) at Microsoft was just hired into a new position. Exciting timing that the STP crew comes right in time to partner with Microsoft to LAUNCH the... Read Full Story

Sharing the Point South America and Antarctica is in full swing. Here in Buenos Aires it's not just HOT from being in the middle of summer. The tango is HOT, the beautiful people are HOT, and the SharePoint is HOT. Maurcio and Ariel are delivering a session called SharePoint XXX for Adults only. Not sure why it was standing room only in that session, but I have respect for the 5 people in the other room.
In between sessions I was talking to a guy with a skull shirt, travelled 300 KM to... Read Full Story

Intranet Portals are often sooooo boring. They start out as dry static places with official snippet of words from the CEO or a vision statement, and a few stale articles and links scattered in mega menus. Ultimately users turn to search or simply click on their links that they hope don't move around too much.
Social Networks are these fresh places where employees engage with each other. They are the new IM and Chat conversations and those that adopt them can't live without them, but others... Read Full Story

After jumping through the various hoops and logistics of getting SharePoint Rockstars and MVPs Dustin Miller and Heather Solomon I was looking to really transform the way the business and IT approached branding and design on Intranet applications.
Monday morning this week Heather Solomon shows up and immediately starts building credibility with the crowd. I couldn't distinguish the first half of day 1 between a consulting engagement and our time with Heather our instructor. In fact much of... Read Full Story

We had a meeting today to discuss what we should do prior to escalating a ticket to Microsoft. There's obviously a lot of troubleshooting that Tier 2, Tier 3, and Engineering should do prior to an escalation to Microsoft, and all of that due diligence, but I wanted to put together an escalation checklist that goes beyond it. Kudos to Microsoft Support and Microsoft PFEs.
